With that power comes the requirement to dominate others in roles of political leadership\, moral authority\, social superiority\, property control\, and sexual supremacy over women. Men do not volunteer for patriarchy; they are born into it and subjected to masculinities dictated by patriarchy. An increasing number of folk identifying as male are challenging the dictates of patriarchy\, deconstructing toxic masculinities\, and constructing more mindful\, purposeful\, and ethical masculine identities. \nIn this drop-in group\, male-identifying folk explore our relationships with patriarchy and masculinity to provide ourselves opportunities to live more intentionally. We will not simply participate in and reproduce the dictates of patriarchy. We will co-construct masculinities that are: \n\n more supportive to those who identify as male\,\nmasculinities that support a more ethical relationship to the earth and fellow living beings\, and\nmasculinities that do not diminish the identities or roles of anyone identifying as female\, nonbinary or nonmasculine.\n\n  \n3rd Sunday Monthly \n1:30 – 3:30 PM \nPhilosophical Research Society \n3910 Los Feliz Blvd.\, Los Angeles\, CA. 90027 \n  \nDonation-based. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. \ninfo: FrankBaird@FrankBaird.com URL:https://meditationcoalition.com/event/mindful-of-masculinity-undoing-patricarchy-2019-11-20/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
